Medical Video: HPV Vaccine Is Important For Mens Health Too HD
All drugs, including vaccines, can cause side effects. Everyone's reaction after being given the HPV (human papillomavirus) vaccine is similar to other vaccines. The most common side effects of the HPV vaccine are pain, redness and / or swelling at the injection site.
However, this is only temporary and this shows that the immune system responds to the vaccine. What are these side effects? Let us complete it below.
Side effects of the HPV vaccine
Very common side effects
More than one in ten women who get the HPV vaccine have problems at the injection site such as:
- Redness, bruising, itching, swelling, pain, or cellulitis.
- Headache
Very common side effects
More than one per hundred women who get the HPV vaccine experience:
- Fever
- Nausea (not feeling well)
- Pain in the arms, fingers, toes and toes
Side effects are rare
About one in ten thousand women who get the HPV vaccine experience an itchy red rash (urticaria or biduran).
Very rare side effects
Less than one in ten thousand women who get the HPV vaccine experience problems and difficulty breathing (bronchospasm).
The side effects of the HPV vaccine that the risk of occurrence is not so certain
If other side effects are known to be at risk (ie frequent, rare, or rare), there are some side effects of the HPV vaccine whose risk of occurrence is not known with certainty. This is because information is received from people who report their own side effects, not by controlled or clinical trials. These side effects are:
- Blood problems, which cause bruising without cause or bleeding
- Chills
- Fainting (loss of consciousness)
- Dizzy
- Feeling not feeling well.
- Guillain Barré syndrome
- Joint pain
- Lymphadenopathy
- Muscle pain or weakness
- Seizures
- Fatigue or weakness
- Gag
If you feel unwell or have concerns about the above side effects after receiving the HPV vaccine, seek medical help. If you feel very sick, immediately visit emergency health services.
Allergic reactions
In rare cases, you may experience a serious allergic reaction after getting a vaccine, also known as anaphylactic shock. Anaphylactic shock signs include:
- Difficulty breathing
- Eyes, lips, genitals, hands, feet and other areas swell (angioedema)
- Itchy
- The mouth feels like iron
- Eyes are sore, red, and itchy
- Changes in heart rate
- Lost consciousness
Again, severe reactions like this are very rare. The comparison is one per one million people. If you have a severe allergic reaction, contact your doctor immediately.
Relationship between chronic fatigue and HPV vaccine
There are reports in the media that some women experience chronic fatigue syndrome after HPV vaccination. The cause of chronic fatigue syndrome (also known as myalgic encephalomyelitis or ME) is unknown, but it occurs naturally in adolescents, and is more common in girls than in boys.
The WHO Global Advisory Committee on Vaccine Safety (GACVS) regularly reviews emerging evidence on the safety of HPV vaccination, and issued a statement in March 2014 that there was no real connection between the HPV vaccine and autoimmune diseases.
In addition, the risk of HPV transmission and the development of cervical cancer is still far greater than the risk of side effects of the HPV vaccine. So, no need to worry if you want to inject an HPV vaccine.
